413. To be idle is to be idle anyway

Lloyd used the frequency signal sent back by his teammates, and after some simple calculations, quickly captured their spatial coordinates, and then opened three portals at the same time, taking them over one by one.

The first to come back was Valdés, and as soon as he came out of the portal, he used the ability of the [Intelligence] system to say in Lloyd's mind:

"That student from Jenkins, who was attacked by an unknown person two days ago, is currently ...... in the hospital"

This was the news he had just inquired about, but before he could finish it, he heard Lloyd preemptively reply:

"It's okay, I've already rescued people."

Valdés: "????? ”

Before Lloyd could explain, he saw the bald Bartolo come out of the portal, holding several delicate crafts like snowflake balls, and inside was a small miniature of the Eternal City, with snowflakes still falling around him.

"A little souvenir bought casually, come and come, everyone has a share."

Bartolo said happily and handed one to Lloyd and Valdés.

Lloyd took the souvenir and asked with some surprise:

"Why are you calling for help when you weren't sending the band just now?"

"Huh? Didn't I reply to channel 1? ”

Bartolo was also confused, and then explained:

"I found my old classmate back then, and he took me around, and by the way, I heard a little news, so good, why did I call for help?"

"Uh...... Please show me the communicator. ”

Valdés, who was next to him, said, took back the 'cigarette case' for the bald head, opened it, checked the ritual engraved on the inside of the cigarette case, and then said with a little embarrassment:

"There is no problem in the structure, it should be a long distance, and there is some interference in the middle, such as the radio signal, or the breath escaping from the transcendental, and the spirituality in the air, which causes the frequency shortness to be slightly deviated in the end."

After doing it for a long time, it turned out that the signal was not good?

Lloyd couldn't hear it for a while.

It seems that Valdés's design is creative, but there is still a lot of room for optimization and improvement......

As the three of them met, there was only one Lindsay left who didn't come out of the portal for a long time.

And the frequency band he sent back earlier was a garbled code outside the agreement......

He can't be the one who really happened, right?

Lloyd wanted to go over to find him, but before he could lift his feet, he saw Lindsay poke out a blue and swollen face from the portal, and then dragged a person out of the portal with great difficulty.

"Hiss~ It hurts me to death, this kid is really hard to deal with."

Lindsay grinned, and lightly touched the bruise at the corner of her eye, and suddenly twitched in pain.

"Why are you still doing it to people?"

The bald man asked suspiciously, and handed him a bottle of potion.

Lindsay's 'tons and tons' finished the whole bottle, and then she withdrew the corners of her grinning mouth and replied:

"I figured out how to sneak into the underground black market here, and then I found out that a force called the 'Dawning Esoteric Order' was recruiting archaeologists and brave adventurers at a high price......

Isn't the Lord Jenkins you're looking for an expert in archaeology? I suspected that it might have something to do with it, so I went over to inquire further, but in turn I was targeted by this guy and suddenly jumped out and attacked me......"

Lindsay said, kicking the man lying on the ground, and added angrily:

"Fortunately, I was quite able to fight, and in turn subdued him, just at this time His Excellency Lloyd's answer came...... Whew~ It's really dangerous, who knows if this product is still in the same party? ”

After hearing this, Lloyd hurriedly gave the man on the ground a shot on the head of the [probe]

Belch...... The four attributes are around 15 points, and the system is [Calamity], but it should be the first order that has just completed [Enlightenment], and the threat to yourself is a small ant with a stick figure.

On the other hand, Lindsay is still the second order of the [Veto] system, and all four attributes are above 20 points.

As a result, he was forced to be so embarrassed, and he was beaten to a blue nose and swollen face, although he still won in the end, but this combat power is really too good......

On the other hand, the guy on the ground, although he fainted, didn't seem to be injured, but he had a swollen bag on the top of his head.

But Lloyd looked at it from another angle, this guy is not cowardly at all, he dares to go to the underground black market alone, and he can solve it by himself when he encounters danger, which can be regarded as a different level of power.

At this time, the bald head briefly checked the state of the gangster on the ground with inspiration, and said:

"This guy is supposed to be from the [Calamity] system, and he followed and attacked you because you inquired about the 'Dawning Esoteric Society'?"

"That's right, look here."

Lindsay flipped open the man's sleeve to reveal a 'bloody eye' tattoo on his arm, and further explained:

"This is what I discovered when I beat him, it's the unique emblem of the 'Dawning Order', as if it means 'you will cry when you look at the dawn'?"

Who beat whom?

Lloyd sneered a little amusedly, and said normally:

"Thank you...... Now I have good news here, Jenkins I have rescued, he has indeed been kidnapped by this 'Dawn Esoteric Order'. ”

The bald head and Lindsey were startled at the same time, and each asked:

"Huh? So fast? ”

"Wow? Lord Lloyd, you're too powerful, aren't you? I just found some clues, and I rescued everyone? ”

However, Valdés was quite calm, but he was relieved, and then asked:

"Good news doesn't follow bad news, does it?"

"There's really - the bad news is that the 'Dawning Esoteric Society' is hatching some kind of earth-shattering conspiracy, probably to help their bandit leader advance to the ninth rank and subvert the Eternal City through some evil ritual......"

Lloyd briefly shared his experience with his teammates.

The three teammates suddenly showed different reactions-

Lindsay frowned, as if she was seriously thinking about a countermeasure; Valdés, on the other hand, was slightly curious, as if he was more interested in the origins of the organization; The bald Bartolo was very calm, smiled disdainfully, and said:

"Another bunch of whimsical maniacs."

"Oh? It seems that they are not the first gang of gangsters to want to do this? ”

Lloyd asked.

The bald head replied with some amusement:

"Of course not, it's just that I've heard that the gangs of the three systems of [Pain], [Curse], and [Calamity] have all made similar attempts, and if they want to bring out a Sage, they have tried at least five or six times, right?

As for the result...... Everybody knows. ”

Valdés on the side listened to this, and hurriedly asked curiously:

"Is it because these taboo systems can't give birth to saints?"

The bald head replied in a relatively rigorous tone:

"Perhaps? It may be because these three systems themselves have some problems and hidden dangers that cannot be solved; Or maybe it's because the person they chose can't do it?

In short, these people's attempts have failed.

But you should have heard that the [veto] system was also a taboo system in the eyes of people at the beginning, and it was not until the appearance of the Sage that it became a legal system, and the Sage did not engage in any intrigues and dirty tricks, but they completed [Detachment] in a dignified manner. ”

When Lloyd heard this, he remembered that the academy actually opened these three forbidden system disciplines, but it seemed that it was the same as the [Twisted] department he was in, and he didn't look popular, and he didn't study a single sage.

It seems that the Sage is really not good, and he has to be as good as himself, or Hiltina as good as himself.

Lloyd was thinking to himself, when he heard the bald Bartolo propose:

"But although these people failed in the end, the chaos and trouble caused were not small at all, otherwise I would not have heard of it...... To be cautious, let's hand this guy over to the Eternal Order, shall we? ”

He did not advocate meddling in the matter, in line with Lloyd's thoughts.

This is obviously a matter of the Eternal Order, and there is no position on his side to intervene, and if he gets Lao Zhan back, and then informs the other side of the situation, it can be regarded as benevolent and righteous.

What's more, the work of clearing out the underworld forces has always been troublesome and hard, but it's not like playing a game and running over to brush the monster and it's over, how can Lloyd have the energy and time to take care of this?

However, Lloyd thought about it a little more, took out his pocket watch again, looked at the time, and proposed:

"It's not enough to just make such a small minion out, anyway, it's still a while before 6 o'clock, let's go to the den that Lindsay discovered, right?"

"Oh?"

The bald Bartolo was slightly stunned, then realized something, and said with a smile:

"Okay, it's idle anyway."

Lindsey echoed indignantly:

"Good, good! I was thinking about how to retaliate against them, and I actually sent someone to attack Young Master Ben? ”

Only Valdés, after a little thought, 'private chat' Lloyd asked:

"Are you interested in the archaeological activities they are going to do?"

"Haha...... Is it that obvious? ”

Lloyd smiled, but didn't deny it.

He has no interest in cleaning up the underworld forces, but he cares a lot about what kind of relics the other party is going to dig? So much so that Lao Zhan must be forced to participate?

Although he doesn't look down on Lao Zhan, as a relatively weak fifth-order, he is still of the [Redemption] system, and his combat power should not be very rare;

Academically, he is not an irreplaceable top boss, even if the combination of archaeologist and prophet is very special, but others can't find one more person.

So why do you have to force Lao Zhan to participate? Is there anything irreplaceable about him in it?

In this way, Lloyd recalled the one that Lao Zhan had shared at the symposium, an archaeological experience when he was younger.
